Summary
“I promise you, that won’t happen,” Eddie assured him.
“But it is,” Buck sobbed. “It is. You’re going to find a- a woman who you’ll fall in love with, and then you and Chris are gonna move on and won’t need me anymore, and I- I’ll just be Buck again.”
“You’ll never be ‘just Buck’,” Eddie said, still holding Buck’s face in his hands. “You’ll never be ‘just’ anything to us, and we’re not going to move on from you.”
“You can’t promise that,” Buck sniffled.
“But I can,” Eddie told him, taking a deep breath as he wiped away Buck’s tears with his thumbs. “I can.”
“How?” Buck’s voice crackled.
Eddie looked at him for a moment before his voice dropped low. “Because I’ve already found all of that with you.”
